| Notes |
Most weight trainers are keen to develop a defined waistline, but the area is normally obscured by a layer of fat. It is important to note that this fat can only be reduced by burning more calories than are consumed, by doing aerobic exercise and eating carefully. Resistance training targeted to the abs can only develop the muscle, it will not burn fat. |
